Chapter 47 Decapitation Plan
Before Chief Taneda could say anything more to his subordinates, a familiar voice excitedly rushed into their ears. Edogawa Ranpo walked into their room with a person and shouted, "We are here!"
Taneda Santouki and Sakaguchi Ango looked at him together, the people outside were still gathering, their desires and appeals were still ringing in their ears, but these people were still able to keep their composure, people who are easily panicked cannot sit in such a position.
"I just heard you were discussing how to solve the problem outside?" Edogawa Ranpo strode forward.
Sakaguchi Ango turned his chair and said, "Yes, we want to eliminate this matter with the least loss."
"There is no other way," Edogawa Ranpo said simply, "If their demands cannot be met, the only option is to make them retreat with bloodshed and sacrifice."
Commander Taneda and Sakaguchi Ango both frowned, and the commander immediately said, "Absolutely not. This is not a time of war. Civilians should never be attacked by artillery fire in their own country! This is an iron rule!"
"Then we have to be quick." Edogawa Ranpo was not surprised by his answer. He said, "If this matter is not resolved in the shortest possible time, the situation outside will only fall into disorder and chaos. In fact, there are already signs of this happening, but they have been suppressed. If we can't resolve them, we can only resolve another source."
"You mean," Sakaguchi Ango pushed up his glasses, "the woman named Isabel?"
"Either you satisfy her demands and give her the thing, so that her demands and those of the outsiders are met, and things will definitely calm down immediately. Or," he narrowed his eyes slightly, "arrest her and bring her to justice, then put her on trial in front of everyone, saying that she is just a liar from overseas who is full of lies and lies, and is only trying to mess up the country, so that they will doubt themselves. Then use force to deter and execute a few radical elements. If possible, choose those who have committed heinous crimes to scare everyone, and then appease them with kind words, let them go home, and say that we will think carefully about the Leibo Street matter, so that they still have hope."
"In fact, her disadvantage was obvious from the beginning," Ranpo said, "She knew it herself, so she took control of the Port Mafia as quickly as possible. That is, she was the weaker party from the beginning to the end. Before she deployed her own military force, she only had the sword maid's fighting power."
"What if we do what you said and they still refuse to retreat and instead become even more radical?" asked Ango Sakaguchi, feeling a little nervous.
Ranpo was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Then we will repeat what happened in other countries. Many people will die, our side, the top leaders, but more of them. Their road will be paved with corpses. They may get what they want, but they will pay far more than they deserve. They are right, and there should be no such losses. Moreover, the whole country may be in turmoil because of this. In another country, some people call this - 'revolution'."
The scene was silent. Everyone felt a chill from the smell of blood, and no one spoke for a long time.
Isabel is now at her busiest, trying to keep the ship from sailing in another direction. She naturally saw that the Special Power Agent Department was surrounded. They set up a layer of fully armed troops outside the building and tried their best to prevent people from squeezing in. Some pepper spray and high-pressure guns were also prepared, and more teams were sent to the city. The top leaders of the country finally took notice of this place.
Many reporters quickly came to the city, both domestic and foreign. Among them, British reporters were the first to arrive here. They got the news from the Special Power Agent Department and took action the earliest. For some reason, when they faced this grand scene and talked about the mastermind, they actually felt a faint sense of pride.
Isabel cast her gaze, and Nanako Kojima's face tensed. She jumped forward without hesitation, and her tough legs turned into knives that pressed down on the ground. She fell into the building of the Special Powers Department like a cannonball, startling everyone in the building. They all fled, not daring to stay here any longer.
Sakaguchi Ango immediately pulled out a pistol from his pocket. He and some armed men stood in front and said to Taneda Santoka and Edogawa Ranpo, "Hurry up and leave!"
Miyazawa Kenji, who was following behind Ranpo, quickly activated his special ability and said, "I'm here to stop her, you guys leave now!"
Edogawa Ranpo shouted, "You came here, aren't you afraid that the person you are loyal to will be in danger?"
At the same time, he whispered into the communicator beside his ear: "Not good, we haven't even started the 'decapitation plan' yet, and the other party has come to our door first."
Nanako Kojima glanced over and said, "It would be fine if I just knocked you all down." That way no one would go looking for the lady.
She was like a jaguar, and her blade struck like a slashing moon.
Dazai Osamu took a piece of paper that a cat brought to him, looked at the words on it, took a breath and said, "This is really difficult."
With him were Dr. Yosano, the president, Junichiro Tanizaki, and his younger sister Naomi. When Naomi passed by a chaotic street, she saw Haruno Kirako, who had just left them, standing in the street. She did not pay attention to her, but was shouting something loudly. She had never seen Haruno, who used to speak in a low voice, behave like this, which made her look a little depressed throughout the journey.
"Are we going to find that woman?" asked Junichiro Tanizaki.
"Ah," Dazai Osamu said, "Now is a good time. The strongest force around her is not here, and the hostages are also parading on the streets. I hope Miyazawa and the others can delay it for a while. She doesn't have any hidden forces on her side."
"Bang!" A huge sound of something falling from a height resounded beside them. Dazai Osamu and the others looked over there and saw Nakahara Chuuya floating in the air, his whole body emitting red light. He looked at them coldly with a ferocious smile on his face: "Bluefin, where are you going?"
"Alas," Dazai Osamu sighed, "This is what bothers me. He should be the strongest fighter on our side, but why did he become the opponent's after participating in a tournament?"
“Can you give us some water?” He shouted to Nakahara Chuuya, “You know, we are not actually wrong.”
Nakahara Chuuya laughed: "Are you begging me for mercy?"
"Yes," Dazai Osamu knelt down without hesitation, clasped his hands together and said, "Please, Nakahara Chuuya, please show mercy!"
Nakahara Chuuya stared at him, but soon he reacted: "You are such a shameless bastard. But," he rolled his eyes and said, "It's not impossible. As long as you stay here and don't move a step, I can accompany you and not touch you at all."
"Oh," Dazai stood up indifferently, patted the dust off his pants, and said, "It seems that your mission is just to involve us."
He ordered without any politeness: "Boss, he will be handed over to you. The longer you delay, the better."
The president didn't care. He stepped forward with a knife and said, "Ah, leave it to me. I'll do my best."
Doctor Yosano on the side said, "I'll stay too. He's very powerful."
Dazai Osamu nodded. He ran away quickly, leaving only one sentence: "Don't let everyone die!"
Isabel looked at the city in silence. She knew her own weaknesses. She closed her eyes and felt the card that her subject had drawn this time. She raised her eyebrows and had a plan in mind. Unfortunately, the [Distortion] card cannot be used easily. The subject has a premonition that this card is likely to cause a very bad impact. The vests are all part of him, and it is not yet time to take a gamble.
She turned around, and suddenly, she was stunned. A whirlpool appeared beside her, and a strange man in a white and black outfit and a white cloak jumped out of it. He first came close to look at her with an extremely curious look, but then he jumped back, holding his hat in his hand, and bowed like a magician, saying, "Good afternoon, dear lady."
Isabel raised her eyebrows. She held the umbrella handle and said calmly, "You were sent by Fyodor? What does he want?"
The strange guy immediately burst into laughter. He said loudly: "Sure enough, Fyodor is right. You really know me."
Isabel didn't let him fool her. She just said lightly, "You should always have a basic understanding of your partners. Did something happen in the city?"
"It's the military police who have arrived," the guy said, his face full of eagerness to try: "Those guys, as soon as the order was given, they grabbed a fighter plane and came over. You have to do whatever you want as soon as possible, otherwise, these guys don't mind smashing you into a meat paste~"
Isabel pondered. But the guy didn't leave yet. He circled around Isabel and said to her, "I didn't expect there would be another guy like Feijia in the world."
"But you are not so similar to him," he thought, "You don't have his kind of madness. You can do great things, but I always feel that something is missing..."
"Ah, that's right!" His eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his index finger and answered his own question: "It's 'despair'!"
"Fejia is a broken Feijia," the corners of his mouth curved into a frightening arc, and he suddenly asked with expectation: "Will you become like him?"
Isabel shook her head. "My ideals are different from his. If a person wants to do something for the world, then he must still have hope for the world. I am different. And don't think about doing anything." She raised the umbrella in her hand, and the tip of the umbrella was a few centimeters away from the guy. She said, "Fyodor must have told you before you left not to do anything to me."
"What if I do take action?" He wanted to ask back, highlighting his rebellious nature. And he can really do it.
Isabel was silent for a moment, and finally she said, "Then I will have to use forces outside the rules."
This guy stared at her for several seconds, as if he had noticed something. He restrained his momentum and jumped back a long distance. "Okay, okay, I actually still like you very much." But looking at his attitude, it was clear that he was keeping his distance.
He saluted again, put on his hat, raised his eyes slightly and said: "Then I wish you success in this journey. But, please don't die."
The space behind him turned, and his entire body merged into it and disappeared.
Isabel took back her umbrella. She was not surprised. Cooperating with a dangerous organization like the Dead Rat House was inherently extremely dangerous. But don't think that they have any credibility. Believe that the "devil" will sell her out as long as the profit is enough, without even a second of hesitation.
She sent a message with her communicator, but a moment later, she received another new message on her phone. She opened it and smiled with satisfaction. She stood on the edge of the tall building, holding up her umbrella. The wind blew her umbrella sideways. She whispered, "It looks like I need to add a little more code to you."
She held out her hand, fingers spread out. “This city is on the brink of change, but who are the people who care the most about whether it will be reborn or fall into the abyss?” she smiled.
